Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 356,4068 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 356,4068 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 170,957
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 162690
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/162690
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 356/170,4068/957 is 4/162690
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 170,957 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(170,957) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(170,957) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(170,957) = ( 170 × 957 ) / 1
LCM(170,957) = 162690 / 1
LCM(170,957) = 162690
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
